Oracel Articles

Oracle is dragging Google into court and we are all finally cheering. Google has been accused by Oracle of stealing parts of the famous Java to build the Android platform. Oracle had paid $7.4 billion to buy Sun Microsystems, makers of Java, for the sake of acquiring Java, according to Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle.

By using Java software tools, Google appears to have violated copyrights and patents held by Oracle, in order to construct the Android operating system. Google, as always, feigns innocence, but Oracle is seeking $1 billion in damages. The results could alter Google’s methods of use and distribution of the world’s leading mobile operating system.
